2 ) If I go to India in Dec 2013 and come can I use my L2 visa valid till 8 Feb 2014 or need to go for stamping ?

3) If I will go for stamping do they cancel me L2 visa too if H1B rejected ?

If you have joined H1B employer then why are you searching for a job?

Actually my employer is searching for project.Currently on bench with my employer

Oh got it. Hope you are being paid by H1B employer. Otherwise you are out of status. 

To go back to L2 you need to file for a COS from H1B to L2 or exit and enter US on L2 visa.

There is a possibility that they might cancel your L2 visa when you go for H1B stamping. I am not 100% sure about this.
